Detailed explanation-2: -The LH is generally known as the hunger center, and two of its main functions are the stimulation of feeding behavior and arousal. Electrical stimulation of the LH results in ravenous eating behavior, and animals are extremely motivated to work for a food reward (Stuber and Wise, 2016).
Detailed explanation-3: -The lateral hypothalamus (LH) is a key brain area in the regulation of feeding behavior. The LH is known as the hunger center subsequent to classical reports showing that lesion of the LH suppresses food intake and electrical stimulation of the LH increases food intake.
Detailed explanation-4: -General Functions of the Lateral Hypothalamus LH neurons control feeding, blood pressure, heart rate, water intake and sodium excretion largely through the activation of adrenergic receptors (Shiraishi, 1991; Saad et al., 2000; Mendonca et al., 2018).
